How to Watch Reds at Pirates (Aug. 9): Stream MLB Live, TV Channel

The Pirates look to extend their win streak to three games on Saturday night when they host the Reds for game 3 of their series.

The Cincinnati Reds head into Saturday evening at PNC Park looking to put a stop to a slippery road slide, having dropped their last three away contests as they journey to Pittsburgh for Game 3 of a four-game division series. Their quest to reclaim Wild Card positioning hinges on a strong showing in hostile territory as the team currently trails the New York Mets by three-and-a-half games. Having lost the first two games of the series puts the Reds in a must-win situation on Saturday night night as the team takes on a tough Philadelphia Phillies team in the coming days.

On the hill for Cincinnati is Nick Martinez who is 9-9 on the season with a 4.66 ERA. He faces a scrappy Pirates team buoyed by home field advantage as Pittsburgh is 34-27 at PNC Park. Pittsburgh counters with Braxton Ashcraft who comes into the game with a record of 3-2 and an ERA of 3.24. Ashcraft is a left-hander whose solid numbers suggest the early advantage may lean toward the Bucs. The season series is locked at 4-4, setting the stage for what promises to be a tense showdown.

Offensively, the clash will showcase two dynamic forces as the Reds’ teenage sensation Elly De La Cruz has been dominant, boasting an impressive blend of doubles (24), triples (3) and home runs (19). Pirates’ veteran stalwart Andrew McCutchen carries significant history in this rivalry and will look to literally step up to the plate and put on a show for his home side fans.

With momentum desperately at stake and both arms locked in capable form, Game 3 on Saturday night promises to deliver high drama in a pivotal divisional clash.
